Can supermarkets casually put "Wishing you prosperity"?
"Wishing you prosperity" has brought the taste of the year to supermarkets large and small, but will supermarkets infringe when they put "Wishing you prosperity"?
Zhao Zhan, a lawyer at Beijing Jiawei Law Firm, said that if supermarkets, shopping malls, shopping malls, etc. play the song "Wishing you prosperity" as background music in their business premises without the permission of the rights holder, it is an infringement of the right holder's performance rights in respect of the work, and does not meet the scope of fair use.
Zhao Zhanzhan pointed out that the determination of copyright infringement does not require profit as a constitutive element, that is, even if it is not for profit-making purposes, as long as it does not meet the scope of fair use, it will constitute infringement.
If a supermarket buys a genuine CD of "Wishing you prosperity" and then plays the genuine CD in the supermarket, is it infringing?
Zhao Zhanzhan said that the performance right in copyright includes two forms, one is live performance, and the other is mechanical performance (the use of mechanical equipment to publicly broadcast the work). As long as it is publicly broadcast without the authorization of the copyright owner, it is an infringement of performance rights. Supermarkets use CDs to play genuine songs publicly, which is a mechanical performance.
Then again
"Wishing you prosperity" can ring in supermarkets for 19 years
Just because of this song
It embodies the yearning for a better life
It expresses the common aspirations of everyone
A wish to travel through 19 years of time and space
Andy Lau himself will also use it to play with memes
It should not be counted as such
Let's go to work for an annual limited time
